It’s finally that time of the year! And no, we don’t mean just the holidays. We’ve been working and striving all month for our grand opening and we think we’ve made everyone wait long and hard enough. This time, it’ll be even bigger and better than any event we’ve hosted before. Join us December 3, 2017 for Sweet Thread’s grand opening at Belmont Shore!

Like any other Sweet Threads event, it’s not just a shopping experience. It’s a celebration. We are all about celebrating our store, brand and most importantly, our customers. So bring your little one for this holiday-themed special event for an entire day of treats and fun. This is a formal affair so be sure to dress your minis in fancy mockttail attire.

There will be entertainment, treats and swag bags full of surprises from brands we know you’ll love! Please RSVP on the Facebook event here to let us know you’ll be coming to celebrate with us!

Spooky costumes, yummy treats and goodie bag galore. This year we had the absolute pleasure of hosting our annual Halloween party at our new location on 2nd Street! From pumpkin decorating to Spanish story time, we had an absolute blast and definitely made it a Halloween to remember. A photo wall, oodles of candy and fangtastic refreshments pulled the whole party together. We even had a caricature artist at the store to capture everyone’s look!

Take a peek at a few snapshots from the event 🙂

As usual, we hosted a costume contest complete with prizes. The outfits this year were absolutely killer! It was such a treat to see everyone look so festive — choosing only three winners was so difficult.

After hours of contemplating who had the most fear-inspiring outfits, we managed to narrow it down. A special congratulations to our winners!

This year we had the pleasure of joining our shop neighbors in hosting our first Halloween Broadway Bash! We truly enjoyed seeing all the families come through dressed in their costumes. We were pretty impressed with the creativity that went into them. Choosing a costume winner was definitely not easy. Check out some of the costumes below and pick out your favorite. :o)

It’s pretty hard to choose right?! The costumes keep getting better and better and they have definitely made our job hard. So at last, we have picked the winners. Congratulations to….

We had such a spooktacular time this past Halloween weekend at our Halloween POP UP SHOP + Costume Contest!

We had the pleasure of showcasing local talent, designer, Kara Lewis from Oxeyedbaiby. Kara debuted an exclusive line for Sweet Threads of beautiful handmade pieces that consisted of Gemma rompers and Iris playsuits. What makes these even more special are the vintage lace cut out design, making each piece one-of-a-kind.

We set up a “Build a Pumpkin Face” station. The kiddos had a blast making their pumpkin faces!

Here are just a few that were made that day!

Last but not least, we hosted one of my fave things to do of all time, a Halloween Costume Contest!

Check out the cuties that stopped by the shop and showed off their costumes! Each and every costume was absolutely adorable and there were some clever ones! This was so tough picking out the winners! Check them out for yourselves. You’ll understand why! #sosogood

At last, it is time to announce the winners chosen by 10 judges.

This was a really tough decision being there was so many good and clever costumes to choose from, but nevertheless here it is:

Thank you all again so so much for letting Sweet Threads be a part of your Halloween festivities this year! It truly warms our hearts to see all of you come through and join us in the fun. Being able to be part of the community makes our jobs that much more fulfilling. Thank you for making our Halloween even more SPOOKTACULAR!
